Multiplicity - The Art & Design of Jennifer McCormick, Official opening: Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2009

Hi everyone. Well I must say yesterday was set-up day for the show and I am very happy with the layout of the exhibition (thanks to some of my wonderful and creative coworkers). I hope to see you tomorrow at the spectacular opening night gala Wed, Sept 2, 2009 between 6:00pm – 9:00pm. It will certainly be a fun-filled evening with musical entertainment by London’s multi-talented actress/singer Kathy Quayle who will be performing several a cappella performances live in front of your eyes. There will also be a cash bar and some snacks!For a special sneak preview of the show click here.

Pork outtakes

Food photography is so much fun especially when you get that little ’sheen’ on your food. I was digging through my iPhoto collection and came across these ‘outtakes’ from my Spicy maple pork tenderloin recipe.

Inside the fridge

Some say you can tell a lot about a person by their shoes. I say, you can tell a lot about a person by what’s in their fridge. There’s a lot to fridge culture. Do you still have that leftover chinese food from six months ago shoved in the back of your fridge (you know, the one with the semi-transparent lid where you can’t quite see in)? Why haven’t you tossed it? Could be you’re a supreme procrastinator or holding onto the past? Worth considering.

Yet another side to fridge culture is social etiquette. Some hosts are easily offended by a new acquaintance swinging open their fridge door. Personally, I am not offended at all if someone peaks inside and often food can be a great conversation starter. I view it as a polite gesture of comfort and an indication that my guest is looking for genuine friendship.

I would be fascinated to see Bobby Flay’s real fridge or Ricardo on a daily basis. Cribs perfected the fridge tour the best, but I prefer to see everyday people. A bottle of Cristal is simply an ornament and while it does tell a lot about a person, it simply is not interesting anymore.

Take a look inside my Amana fridge and you may discover something you didn’t already know.

Multiplicity – The Art and Design of Jennifer McCormick opens Sept. 2, 2009, with a free admission gala

LONDON, Ontario, July 23, 2009 – Strong impressions unite the contrasting works of London artist Jennifer McCormick. Her acrylic paintings on wood, canvas and recycled materials often suggest opposing forces uniting. Her works vary in texture, mood and genre, from abstract to graphic design infused with traditional art techniques. Pieces are often paired to complement and contrast with each other.

The ARTS Project invites Londoners to a free opening night gala on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2009, from 6 to 9 p.m. at 203 Dundas St.
